Engineered for Better Sound

read more While other cables can smother sound, increase distortion and flatten bass, link cables utilize unique patented technologies such as multi-gauge Bandwidth Balanced wire networks and Time Correct windings to transfer complex music signals between components with greater accuracy and per phase alignment.

Monster's MicroFiber dielectric employs an intricate way of winding an air-core fiber around each individual conductor to reduce dielectric losses and electromagnetic distortions. MicroFiber increases dynamic range, extending high frequencies and reducing background noise.

In addition, Monster's MultiTwist construction, ultra-dense shielding and conductive polymer dielectrics are used to eliminate hum, interference and handling noise.

Wider frequency response and more natural reduction of harmonics are just some of the improvements musicians discover with Monster Cable link microphone and studio interconnect cables.

In addition to Monster Cables' outstanding mic and instrument cables, the link line features high performance snakes, patchbay cables and speaker cables, as well as line-level audio, video and digital interconnects for every possible hook-up.

Monster recognizes the importance of a high integrity, long lasting connection. Their connectors are designed for maximum signal transfer and the ability to withstand and the rigors of stage and studio environments.

Monster TRS to Male XLR Customer Review

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
Great stuff, thank God I got them cheap. If I hadn't gotten them this cheap, I'd probably still do it again. I heard a difference, that's all that matters. I look forward to working a little easier.
Sound
Well, I heard a difference. It was not something I was "convincing myself" that I heard. I listened to a track on my old cable, then on this stuff, and I heard it. More highs, less "tubby" bass, maybe even a bit more depth of field.
Features
Jacket feels great, well made cable., I sort of think all of their marketing stuff is fluff to an extent
Quality
Quality of build is great.
Value
Here's the only reason my scores from top to bottom are anything but a 10. It's a little pricy. Of course, the best investment is my monitoring situation (powered monitors), so in that sense there is no "too much" if it will improve my work.
